Engineers Australia's response for the Inquiry into the Climate Change Amendment (Duty Of Care And Intergenerational Equity) Bill 2023.

Engineers Australia provides feedback and recommendations, informed by members, on the ACT Integrated Energy Plan.

Engineers Australia Northern Committee sets out a number of statements they acknowledge as key to delivering better energy security outcomes in the Northern Territory context.

Engineers Australia provides feedback on the proposed Safeguard Mechanism reforms. Engineers Australia urges the government to consider all climate reforms, including these SGM reforms, within a context of engineering-led actions and responses.

Engineers Australia welcomes the opportunity to submit a response into the Inquiry into plastic pollution in Australia’s oceans and waterways. Plastic pollution is of course more widespread than in aquatic ecosystems alone however it is in marine environments that the effect of plastic pollution is most widely observed.

Despite having one of the world’s most educated and wealthy populations, Australia remains a chronic underperformer when it comes to the commercialisation of engineering innovation.

This guide is designed to provide guidance regarding fire safety engineering inspections within the fire safety engineering industry.

This document is designed to provide guidance regarding fire safety in partially occupied buildings.

This document provides recommendations for implementation by Australian governments, in collaboration with industry and academia, to increase productivity in the infrastructure sector and to determine how engineers can best contribute to these aspirations. 

This guide is designed to assist professional fire safety engineers, project certifiers, design teams, approval authorities and stakeholders with the practical and appropriate use of the Fire Safety Verification Method (FSVM) as contained in Schedule 7 of the National Construction Code, Volume 1, Building Code of Australia 2019, Amendment 1 (NCC).

The guide provides a fire risk assessment methodology for suitably qualified and competent professionals to determine the potential hazard of fire spread via the facade of existing buildings. It offers a pathway to deliver a risk assessment appropriate to the situation being assessed and enables a level of safety to be defined, from which the assessment goals can be set and agreed with building stakeholders.

This position paper provides an overview of additive manufacturing as it relates to rehabilitation engineering and outlines its potential implications to the areas of application relevant to the National Committee on Rehabilitation Engineers. 

This practice note has been prepared as a guide to practitioners on tenability criteria in building fires, for the purpose of enhancing consistency in the fire engineering industry.

The purpose of this practice note is to provide engineers and others with essential background information on the assessment of the engineering heritage significance of an item or work.

This practice note provides guidance for the development and implementation of the fire safety strategy where continued occupation of an existing building is permitted while construction or refurbishments works proceed. 

The purpose of this practice note is to provide engineers and others with a process for assessing engineering heritage significance.

This practice note is a supplement to the International fire engineering guidelines for fire safety engineers to derive design fires and design fire scenarios in a consistent manner.
